No one really knows how hard it was. The late nights you cried quietly. The days you felt like giving up but still got out of bed. The times you kept everything together even when it felt like you were falling apart. People see the smile but not the storm it took to get there. So yeah maybe you’re not where you want to be yet but you’ve come a long way. And that matters. You should be proud of how far you’ve come even if no one else sees the full picture. You saved yourself in ways you don’t even realize. That’s something worth holding on to.
